Suzuki Access 125 Mileage Real World Test 2026

Access 125 Mileage 2026 — 50-55 KMPL Real-World Test, City & Highway

August 2026 8 min read Mileage Test

Quick Summary: Suzuki Access 125 real-world mileage: City 48-50 KMPL (solo rider, traffic), Highway 54-58 KMPL (60-70 km/h cruise). Running cost ₹2.1/km. Tank range 250-280 km city, 300+ km highway. ARAI certified: 52 KMPL.

The Suzuki Access 125 mileage in real-world conditions delivers 48-50 KMPL in city and 54-58 KMPL on highways — making it one of the most fuel-efficient 125cc scooters in India. We tested the 2026 model (Disc Alloy variant) over 500 km across city traffic, mixed roads, and open highways in Delhi-NCR. The Suzuki SEP (Suzuki Eco Performance) technology with fuel injection ensures consistent mileage even in heavy traffic, thanks to its precise air-fuel mixture management.

The Access 125's 124cc engine is tuned for efficiency over raw power. At 8.7 PS and 10 Nm, it's not the most powerful scooter, but the CVT transmission keeps the engine in its sweet spot at city speeds. The fuel injection system adapts to temperature and altitude — meaning your mileage stays consistent whether you're riding in Delhi summer (45°C) or Bangalore winter (15°C). With petrol at ₹105/litre, this translates to a running cost of just ₹2.1/km — cheaper than any 125cc alternative except the TVS Jupiter 125.
